Gaming Perspectives With Saul and Jolene Episode 51: Story Over Rules

     Well, we are almost at Episode 52, which makes it a year of our podcasts.  We missed a week due to going to Kublacon over Memorial Day weekend. But we did publish two bonus episodes that we recorded at Kublacon on Friday and Saturday of the con.  We had a great time and were very busy the whole weekend.       So in this episode Saul and Jolene talk about Rules As Written(RAW) over Story.  No game is all of one or the other in Roleplaying games.  At times a GM will have to make a decision that may or may not follow the rules as written.  Sometimes it is done due to a mistake, trying to keep the narrative going, or many other reasons.  Saul and Jolene give examples of why people like to have run games RAW.          Saul and Jolene discuss the idea of the GM telling the players of his game his expectations of the game that they will be running.  This will help alleviate any problems that could arise from players expecting a different game than the one the GM is intending to run.     As always thank you all for listening and all we ask of you is that you share our podcast with friends and family in order to get our podcast to as many people as possible.       No music due to the podcast computer dying and being stubborn about being brought back to life.
